ME News, April 23 (UTC+8), Circle Chief Economist Gordon Liao submitted an ARFC proposal stating that the USDC liquidity pool on Aave v3 Ethereum mainnet has been near 100% utilization for approximately four consecutive days. The borrowing rate has been maintained at the upper limit of around 14% but has failed to achieve market clearing. Liquidity remains tight, and both deposit and lending scales are shrinking simultaneously. The proposal states that the situation is primarily driven by approximately $300 million in borrowing demand following the rsETH incident, as well as borrowers' insensitivity to interest rates. The proposal suggests increasing Slope 2 from approximately 10% to 50%, with an interim transition to 40%, while lowering the optimal utilization rate from 92% to 85%, in order to raise the interest rate ceiling and attract liquidity back, allowing the pool to restore clearing through price mechanisms. In addition, the proposal suggests pausing or fixing the Slope 2 risk oracle during the anomalous period, with LlamaRisk and Aave Labs implementing temporary parameters first, and completing governance confirmation within 5 to 7 days.
